Reviews & Ratings for Limbsaver AirTech Slip-On Recoil Pad — 10 reviews — Page 1

I have a few of these in multiple sizes for different long guns already, so I'm very satisfied. In general I prefer to buy slip on recoil pad rather permanent changes, just to keep the long-gun as original as possible, and ensuring the modifications are easy to reverse. In most cases I bought Limbsaver AirTech recoil pads to reduce felt recoil, but sometimes I get them to increase the LOP on shorter buttstocks. These come in several sizes (height, width...not thickness), which is handy for obvious reasons. However, I don't think I've ever got one that fits perfectly on any of my guns, but that's been ok for me. If you can't get one that fits your stock perfectly, then get the one that's slightly smaller. Also, watch out for your rear sling stud; Limbsaver makes the bottom part shorter, presumably to accommodate sling studs. I never had an issue. Only critique I might have is how sometimes the surface that contacts your shoulder can sometimes be a little "tacky" in terms of sticking to your shirt depending on the cloth or how tight/loose your shirt is, or maybe temperature and humidity. I've noticed this, and it can be more noticeable if you slide the stock up/down your shoulder. But again, it's never been an issue for me - no complaints.

Fits M88 better than the next size down (medium), which goes on but is noticeably tight, whereas the large is only a tad too big. Still fits snuggly without slip, and feels much wider and softer than the stock pad, which fits inside of the Limbsaver. Confident the extra wide double pad will spread out the recoil over more area and over more length of pull.

Get the right size, the sizing chart is out there, M88 can fit either M somewhat tightly or L a tad loosely, recommend L

Easy on. Easy off. A little cushion for the pushin

Most slip on pads help. This one really does decrease feli recol at least 60%
The medium easily slid on my HMK 91 with 21” barrel (pre-94) with minimal
pulling. The other advantage is the extra 1” added to the stock length. I wear
34” sleeve length shirts, so most stocks are short for me.

I bought a 300 win max a couple months ago and was worried about the kick ,i had neck surgery a few years ago ,i saw the Limb saver on optic Planet i called them a a real nice lady answered and she recommended the Limb saver for the mule kick from the 300 win mag ,so i order,d one slid it on ,i let me friend shoot it first he said wasnt bad ,so i tried it no problem it makes the gun jump up rather than kicking the snot out of you ,Im very pleased with it and thank,s to the Knowledgeable Lady at optic Planet ready for the 200 yard to 500 yard shoots up coming deer season ,Jimbo Kohnke

I purchased this for the Luth AR buttock. It also fits well on a Magpul CTR. I was looking for a little padding when shooting prone off a bipod and bag. I have wide shoulders, and can't keep the butt off my collar bone. Even though it is only a 223, it still bites on me. This helps a bunch.

Fast and prompt service as always. I used slip on on my early model 700 Remington with wood stock and steel butt plate. It fit perfect. Easy install. It fit right over steel butt plate or you can remove butt plate.

Significantly, reduces felt recoil on my 300 WSM. Also, adds 1 inch length of pull to the stock. Makes the rifle a pleasure to shoot. Can take it off and use on my other rifles as well. Would recommend to anyone sensitive to recoil.
